<p>Displays using Multi-domain Vertical Alignment, aka MVA, offer better response times than standard IPS panels and better viewing angle and colour than ones using TN, sitting somewhat in the middle of these two standards in quality and price. BenQ has released an 32&quot;, LED backlit 2560x1440 A-MVA display called the BL3200PT with a 100% colour gamut and 1.07 billion colours, aimed at the professional designer on a bit of a budget.&nbsp; The MSRP of $800 makes it far more affordable than many of the 4K monitors on the market and the use of MVA instead of IPS also helps lower the price without sacrificing too much quality.&nbsp; The connectivity options are impressive, HDMI, DisplayPort, dual-link DVI, and D-Sub, along with audio, two USB plugs and a card reader should ensure that you can connect this display to the necessary resources and it can be adjusted vertically as well as tilt and swivel and is capable of portrait mode.&nbsp; <a href="http://www.hardwarecanucks.com/forum/hardware-canucks-reviews/67059-benq-bl3200pt-32-professional-monitor-review.html">Check out Hardware Canucks full review here</a>.</p>

<p>NVIDIA&#39;s G-Sync allows video cards to time the refresh rate of monitors. This is an advantage because the GPU knows when a frame is actually ready to be displayed to the user. The initial batch of announcements were each 1080p monitors, which are least likely to dip down into the 30-60Hz gap where G-Sync is noticeable.</p>
<p class="rtecenter"><div class = "center-article-image"><a href="/news/General-Tech/Computex-2014-ASUS-PG278Q-G-Sync-and-144Hz-1440p" class="inline-image-link" title="View: asus-pg278q.jpg"><img src="/files/imagecache/article_max_width/news/2014-06-02/asus-pg278q.jpg" alt="asus-pg278q.jpg" title="asus-pg278q.jpg" class="pcper-inline" width="393" height="386" /></a></div></p>
<p>Today at Computex, <a href="https://www.asus.com/us/News/xXtX0FNhXQWPrry7">ASUS has announced a 27&quot;, 2560x1440, 144Hz G-Sync display</a>. This higher resolution is starting to reach the point where faster graphics cards struggle to maintain 60 FPS. Not only that, but it is one of the first 1440p panels that you can get which supports high (over 100Hz) refresh rates, officially. Others exist, but &quot;rare&quot; is an understatement.</p>
<p>Its response rate is 1ms (GTG) which, unfortunately, suggests a TN panel. This might be a deal-breaker for some, but if you are looking for a G-Sync, 1440p, and high refresh rate panel, then it might be an acceptable compromise.</p>
<p>The ASUS PG278Q is available in Q2, which ASUS seems to define as the beginning of May to the end of July, for $799 USD. Unfortunately for AMD fans, the panel does not seem to support FreeSync, recently added to DisplayPort 1.2a. FreeSync, of course, is the competitor to G-Sync that AMD proposed to the VESA standards body.</p>

<blockquote><p>&quot;Most IT product categories tend to evolve rapidly, but developments in computer monitors have been decidedly slower. Although larger screens are slowly becoming more affordable, the most common resolution remains 1920x1080 pixels. Nonetheless, this year we&#39;re seeing more and more manufacturers release WQHD monitors. Hardware.Info collected 14 different models of these very impressive monitors and tested them to find out which is the best one to get.&quot;</p>

<p>While wandering the halls at E3 to talk with NVIDIA and AMD about the future of gaming, I ran across a small booth <a href="http://www.monoprice.com/" target="_blank">with Monoprice in it</a>.&nbsp; If you don&#39;t know Monoprice, it is an online seller of electronics and cables and much of its merchandise can be found throughout the offices at PC Perspective.</p>
<p>In recent months Monoprice made news with PC gamers as <a href="http://www.pcper.com/news/General-Tech/CES-2013-Monoprice-Launches-Cheap-2560x1440-IPS-Monitor" target="_blank">one of the first major retailers</a> to begin selling the low-cost 27-in 2560x1440 monitors shipping from Korea.&nbsp; While the monitors are likely very much the same, buying from a local company in the US rather than trusting an eBay buyer in Korea brings a lot of peace of mind to the transaction.&nbsp; Getting a dead pixel and 1 year warranty along with it helps too.</p>
<p><div class = "center-article-image"><a href="/news/Displays/E3-2013-Monoprice-Shows-New-27-and-30-High-Res-Low-Cost-Monitors" class="inline-image-link" title="View: mono2.jpg"><img src="/files/imagecache/article_max_width/news/2013-06-12/mono2.jpg" alt="mono2.jpg" title="mono2.jpg" class="pcper-inline" width="602" height="865" /></a></div></p>
<p>On hand at E3 was the Monoprice IPS-ZERO-G Monitor that runs at a 2560x1440 resolution with a single dual-link DVI input.&nbsp; This is an updated to the first model Monoprice shipped with a newer, thinner design and <a href="http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=114&amp;cp_id=11401&amp;cs_id=1130704&amp;p_id=10509&amp;seq=1&amp;format=2" target="_blank">an even better $390 price point</a>.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Monoprice also is offering a model with an internal scalar that allows the display to include additional inputs like HDMI, VGA and DisplayPort.&nbsp; The <a href="http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=113&amp;cp_id=11307&amp;cs_id=1130703&amp;p_id=10489&amp;seq=1&amp;format=2" target="_blank">27-in IPS-G Pro will sell for $474</a> and will also be tuned for AdobeRGB and sRGB options.&nbsp;</p>
<p>In addition to the two 27-in models, Monoprice also has added 30-in 2560x1600 monitors: the IPS CrystalPro and the IPS Pro with the same primary differentiation - input support.&nbsp;</p>
<p>I am looking forward to getting my hands on these Monoprice display options to see if they can live up to the levels of the other Korean-built displays we have in the office.&nbsp; If they do, then I think we have a new reason for PC gamers to celebrate.</p>
<p><div class = "center-article-image"><a href="/news/Displays/E3-2013-Monoprice-Shows-New-27-and-30-High-Res-Low-Cost-Monitors" class="inline-image-link" title="View: mono1.jpg"><img src="/files/imagecache/article_max_width/news/2013-06-12/mono1.jpg" alt="mono1.jpg" title="mono1.jpg" class="pcper-inline" width="602" height="713" /></a></div></p>
<p>Another interesting find at the booth were some <a href="http://www.monoprice.com/products/subdepartment.asp?c_id=102&amp;cp_id=10255" target="_blank">new HDMI cables using a RedMere controller</a> on the connector to allow for extremely thin (and long) runs.&nbsp; First shown at CES in 2008, the RedMere RM1689 chip runs solely on the power provided by the HDMI output and allows cables to use much less copper to create thinner designs.&nbsp; They will obviously cost a bit more than standard options but you can see from the photo above the difference is striking.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Envision Peripherals Inc. (EPI), a company that sells Philips monitors in North America recently announced three new high resolution IPS desktop monitors. The company is releasing one 29&rdquo; 21:9 monitor for consumers and two high resolution displays for professionals.</p>
<h4>
Philips Brilliance 29&rdquo; UltraWide Monitor</h4>
<p>This Philips monitor is of the 21:9 variety and offers up a resolution of 2560 x 1080 on its AH IPS display. The monitor features a narrow bezel, built-in speakers, and comes bundled with SmartControl software to adjest settings via a PC software application.</p>
<p>It has DL-DVI, DisplayPort, HDMI, and (optional) Thunderbolt video inputs. It supports MultiView technology, which allows the monitor to accept multiple video inputs and display them simultaneously on the screen.</p>
<p><div class = "center-article-image"><a href="/news/Displays/EPI-Announces-New-High-Resolution-Philips-Desktop-Monitors" class="inline-image-link" title="View: Philips Brilliance 29.jpg"><img src="/files/imagecache/article_max_width/news/2013-05-23/Philips%20Brilliance%2029.jpg" alt="Philips Brilliance 29.jpg" title="Philips Brilliance 29.jpg" class="pcper-inline" width="602" height="479" /></a></div></p>
<p>The Philips Brilliance 29&rdquo; UltraWide display is available now at online retailers <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Philips-Brilliance-298X4QJAB-29-Inch-Monitor/dp/B00CCY8AMC">like Amazon</a>. While it has an MSRP of $599 according to the press release, Amazon is actually charging $667.90 for the monitor currently.</p>
<p>While the Brilliance 29&rdquo; UltraWide is aimed at consumers, the following two monitors are intended for professionals doing CAD, finance, and art/design work.</p>
<h4>
P-Line 29&rdquo; UltraWide Monitor</h4>
<p>The P-Line 29&rdquo; UltraWide is a 21:9 monitor for professionals. It features a 2560 x 1080 resolution AH IPS display with MultiView technology and a &ldquo;ultra narrow&rdquo; bezel. EPI claims that the display has both a 178-degree vertical and horizontal viewing angles. There are four USB 3.0 port as well as a height-adjustable stand.</p>
<p>Video inputs include DisplayPort 1.2a ports that allow daisy chaining monitors. The MultiView technology also allows the display to show two display inputs simultaneously.</p>
<p><div class = "center-article-image"><a href="/news/Displays/EPI-Announces-New-High-Resolution-Philips-Desktop-Monitors" class="inline-image-link" title="View: P-line 29 UltraWide.jpg"><img src="/files/imagecache/article_max_width/news/2013-05-23/P-line%2029%20UltraWide.jpg" alt="P-line 29 UltraWide.jpg" title="P-line 29 UltraWide.jpg" class="pcper-inline" width="602" height="520" /></a></div></p>
<p>The monitor is available now to business customers from resellers like CDW for $699.</p>
<h4>
P-Line 27&rdquo; Quad HD Monitor</h4>
<p>Finally, the P-line 27&rdquo; Quad HD monitor is the final new professional series display. It has the highest resolution at 2560 x 1440 (109 PPI). This IPS display supports 8-bit color and has a professional price to match. The monitor itself has a height-adjustable stand, built-in speakers, a 2MP webcam with microphone, USB 3.0 ports, and a PowerSensor which detects when the user leaves the computer and automatically dims the display. EPI claims that the PowerSensor results in up to 80% power savings. It would be useful for businesses, though less crucial for home users.</p>
<p><div class = "center-article-image"><a href="/news/Displays/EPI-Announces-New-High-Resolution-Philips-Desktop-Monitors" class="inline-image-link" title="View: 272P4QPJKEB P-line 27 Quad HD.jpg"><img src="/files/imagecache/article_max_width/news/2013-05-23/272P4QPJKEB%20P-line%2027%20Quad%20HD.jpg" alt="272P4QPJKEB P-line 27 Quad HD.jpg" title="272P4QPJKEB P-line 27 Quad HD.jpg" class="pcper-inline" width="602" height="676" /></a></div></p>
<p>Like the P-line 29&rdquo; UltraWide, this monitor can daisy chain other monitors to the PC video output via DisplayPort connectors. Video inputs include DL-DVI, DisplayPort, HDMI, and Thunderbolt.</p>
<p>It is available now from resellers with an MSRP of $799.</p>

<p>Before they even turned the ASUS PB278Q on, <a href="http://www.hardwarecanucks.com/forum/hardware-canucks-reviews/57294-asus-pb278q-27-pls-monitor-review.html">Hardware Canucks had formed several opinions about the monitor</a>; on the positive side the stand was very versatile and more stable than other 27&quot; displays but on the negative side was the complete lack of an anti-glare coating.&nbsp; The OSD was quite comprehensive, especially if you contrast it with some of the&nbsp; <a href="http://www.pcper.com/reviews/Displays/Achieva-Shimian-27-Monitor-Review-1440p-IPS-Display-Under-350">high definition displays from Korea we have seen recently</a>.&nbsp; The overall performance of monitor was not quite up to the <a href="http://www.kqzyfj.com/click-5682563-10487648?url=http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824001523">Samsung SyncMaster 27A850</a> which is another PLS display on the market, however you can <a href="http://www.kqzyfj.com/click-5682563-10487648?url=http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824236294">get the ASUS display for at least $100 less</a> which may make it the preferred choice of those needing something better than a TN display but can&#39;t afford the top model.</p>
<p class="rtecenter"><div class = "center-article-image"><a href="/news/Displays/ASUS-please-offer-us-alternative-IPS-displays" class="inline-image-link" title="View: HC_specs6.jpg"><img src="/files/imagecache/article_max_width/news/2012-11-20/HC_specs6.jpg" alt="HC_specs6.jpg" title="HC_specs6.jpg" class="pcper-inline" width="602" height="515" /></a></div></p>
<blockquote><p>&quot;PLS panel technology hasn&#39;t been around for all that long but it has already made a lasting mark upon the display market. ASUS&#39; new PB278Q puts this technology to good use in a 27&quot; 2560 x 1440 WQHD monitor that is targeted towards gamers and professionals alike.&quot;</p>

<p>Super PLS is Samsung&#39;s attempt to improve IPS displays, they suggest that this technology will provide better brightness and viewing angles as well as lowering production costs, the latter benefit perhaps being the most attractive.&nbsp; <a href="http://www.kqzyfj.com/click-5682563-10487648?url=http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824001565">At a selling price of $1000</a> this might be hard to believe as is the 4th most expensive 27&quot; on NewEgg right now.&nbsp; ModSynergy also ran into issues trying to use the onboard speakers as HDMI cannot provide the maximum resolution of 2560x1440 and while using Dual-DVI you can get sound because there is no dedicated sound input jack. <a href="http://www.modsynergy.com/review257.htm">See if it is worth the investment by checking out their full review</a>.</p>

<blockquote><p>&quot;Today we look at Samsung&#39;s second integration of Super PLS technology in their lineup with this time the Series 9 S27B970D. What a great follow-up to the Series 8 S27A850D we had for you one month ago. It will be interesting to see and pinpoint the differences between both models aside from the higher price tag. One of the key differences being pushed off the bat by Samsung is the built-in calibration engine and factory professional tuning that the Series 9 S27B970D offers out of the box for unmatched visual experience, according to Samsung.&quot;</p>

<div id="EchoTopic">
<p>About two months ago, a viewer of the podcast that Ryan co-hosts on the <a href="http://twit.tv" rel="nofollow">This Week in Tech network</a>, <a href="http://twit.tv/twich" rel="nofollow">This Week in Computer Hardware</a>, wrote in with some information that immediately excited the staff here at PC Perspective. Ryan for a long time has been of the opinion that the proliferation of 1080p displays, and prohibitive cost of high resolution monitors has been holding the industry back as a whole. With talk of 4K displays being introduced for consumers this year, a major topic on the podcast in the weeks prior to this viewer email had centered around why we haven&#39;t seen affordable 2560x1440 (or 2560x1600) displays.</p>

<p>This brings us back to the knowledge which the listener <a href="http://youtu.be/0WbBNVfXgm4?t=47m11s" rel="nofollow">Jeremy bestowed upon us</a>.&nbsp; Jeremy brought to our attention that various eBay sellers were reselling and exporting generic 27&quot;, IPS, LED backlight, 2560x1440 monitors from South Korea. What is remarkable about these displays however is that various models can be found for just around, or even under $350. Everyone listening, including Ryan and his co-host Patrick Norton became immediately interested in these monitors, and I went into research mode.</p>
